The Effect of Music on Post-Operative PainSlide2
Over 80% of patient experience moderate to severe pain after having surgical proceduresPain is most severe immediately after the surgery after the effect of anesthetic analgesia
ends
It’s usually managed by administering IV or oral narcoticsMusic therapy as a complimentary intervention can act as a distraction, thus helping with pain managementInadequate postoperative pain management may lead to disturbed rest and sleep, delayed wound healing, patient dissatisfaction, prolonged recovery time, and increased healthcare costs * Therefore, it’s important to explore the effect of music on post-operative pain*
Background/ PurposeSlide3
The
objective of the integrative review is to determine if music used as a complimentary therapy in post-operative
patients 18 years of age and older results in less pain intensity compared to the use of narcotics alone? P- In post-operative patients 18 years and older I- Music as a complimentary therapy C- Pharmacological measures (use of narcotics)
O
-Effect pain management (using numerical rating scale (NRS) or the visual analogue scale (VAS))
PICO statementSlide4
The databases CINAHL and MEDLINE were used with key search term ‘music’ along with ‘post-operative pain’, ‘pain management’, and ‘post surgical’
The review
included seven studies, all of which used a control group and music group to compare resultsData from all these studies overall supported music as an aid in reducing pain intensity when used in conjunction with pain medicationPain intensity was measured by the numerical rating scale (NRS) or the visual analogue scale (VAS)Several of these studies showed that pain intensity was significantly lower in the music group than the control group on the second post-operative day specificallyThe literature review suggests that music intervention should be offered to patients after surgery as it has been shown to reduce pain intensity

Study Method
Findings
Allred (2010)
Surgery: Total Knee
Arthroplasty
RCT
56 patients
Experimental group n=28
Control group n=28
Results from this study provide evidence that pain is reduced while listening to music just before the 1
st
ambulation after a TKA. Overwhelmingly, patients reported that music helped them forget about their pain and improved their mood.
Comeaux
& Steele-Moses (2013)
Surgery: various
Quasi-experimental
Music group n=19
Control group n=22
At Time One (first 24 hrs. post-op) no significant difference between the music and control group was found in pain management. At Time 2 (2
nd
post-op day), a significant increase in pain management was found.
Ikonomidou
&
Rehnstrom
(2004)
Surgery: Gynecologic laparoscopy
RCT
Music group n=29
Control group n=26
No significant difference between the music and control group in pain scores was found. However,
opioid
consumption was significantly lower.
Lin et al. (2013)
Surgery: Spinal
Quasi-experimental
Music group n= 30
Control group n=30
Lower pain level throughout the entire observation period was found in the music group compared to the control group.
Tse
et al. (2005)
Surgery: Nasal
RCT
Music group n= 27
Control group n=30
Use of musical therapy resulted in significantly lower pain scores and analgesic consumption in the first 24 hrs. post nasal surgery.
Vaajoke
et al (2011)
Surgery: abdominal
RCT
Music group n=83
Control group n=85
In the music group, patients’ pain intensity and pain distress during deep breathing and in shift position were significantly lower on the 2
nd
post-operative day compared with the control group.
Vaajoke
et al. (2013)
Surgery: abdominal
Quasi-experimental
Music group n=83
Control group n=85
On the 2
nd
post-op day, pain intensity and distress was significantly lower in the music group compared to the control group.Slide6
My role in this project was meeting with my clinician and discussing
the findings of this
researchThe plan is to collaborate with the staff members who provide pre-operative teaching to those having elective surgery They should encourage patients to bring music they prefer from homeI will also recommend that our unit (which is a post-surgical floor) invest in several devices that will play music for patients to use in the hospitalPatients would be provided ear buds to use for music therapy
ImplementationSlide7
Music therapy is an inexpensive intervention and can be easily implemented in the clinical settings
H
ospitals could purchase CD players and MP3 players for patients to use, which could be wiped down and cleaned in between patient use. Patients can be given their own ear buds to keepNurses should encourage patients to listen to music after receiving pain medication for at least thirty minutesThis will likely improve their pain management and increase their overall satisfaction as studies indicate
